I loved this book.
It was such a well-constructed, coming of age story (complete with a delightful story-within-a-story...I'd read the DA comics in a heartbeat) filled with relatable, detailed, flawed, nuanced characters who I loved from the go.
What I found especially compelling was the blending of social commentary and identity politics with the story in a way that felt authentic to the stories, their history and their identities but that also deepened everything around it.
Plus that ending was so satisfying and worth all of the build-up to get to it. Just so lovely and enjoyable!
